What our research says

E2B

E2B is infrastructure for developers who ship agents that need to execute code or use a computer safely, and it gives a clear SDK for that single job. The open-source runtime and bring-your-own-cloud option help teams with data-residency rules. It is not a coding assistant or an agent in itself, and costs scale with sandbox runtime rather than a flat fee.

Pros

  • Apache-2.0 runtime with Python and JavaScript SDKs, plus code-interpreter and desktop packages
  • Pause, snapshot and fork lifecycle, and per-second billing while a sandbox runs
  • Egress policies and a secrets vault keep keys out of the sandbox
  • Managed cloud in US, EU and APAC or bring-your-own-cloud on AWS, GCP and Azure; SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA are claimed

Cons

  • Pro starts at $150 a month before any usage, which is steep for a hobby project
  • Free sessions are capped at one hour
  • Usage pricing needs a calculator to forecast, since CPU and memory are metered separately

omg.dev

omg.dev solves a specific annoyance with coding agents -- losing session state between check-ins -- by giving each user a persistent cloud machine reachable from a browser, SSH, or even a text message. It's a young, apparently small operation without a named company behind it, so buyers are trusting compute hours and code sessions to an infrastructure provider with little public track record.

Pros

  • Persistent state between sessions instead of starting over each time
  • Reachable from browser, SSH, and iMessage
  • Supports multiple coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Pi), not just one vendor's
  • Free tier available to test before paying

Cons

  • No company name or location disclosed on the site
  • Compute hours are capped even on paid tiers, unlike unmetered local development
  • Relies on Firecracker sandboxing whose isolation guarantees aren't independently documented on the marketing site

Which one fits

Choose E2B if you need

  • Teams building coding, data-analysis or computer-use agents that must run untrusted code
  • AI labs that need thousands of short-lived environments for evaluations or reinforcement learning
  • Enterprises that want agent sandboxes inside their own cloud account

Choose omg.dev if you need

  • Developers who want to kick off a coding-agent session from their phone and pick it up later on a laptop
  • Users who want SSH-level access to the same environment their agent works in
  • Anyone wanting to run several agent sessions in parallel without local hardware
